I Can Swim!


Reagan has been taking "official" swim lessons for the past 3 weeks at the Safford Pool. She has done a great job at swimming and has learned to be comfortable in the deep end. (I thought she was only afraid of spiders--but deep water had her going for a few days.) There as been a great ratio--about 1 lifeguard to every 2 swimmers so Reagan has gotten lots of attention and has enjoyed swimming each morning (minus the cold water).
Reagan and Travis have enjoyed swimming every day in our pool too....almost as much as Mom! (We haven't been to the public pool to swim yet this summer!) Travis has really taken off and today was swimming like a little fish! He was like this last summer, but hadn't felt comfortable just yet until today. He swims just under the water--mostly just kicking, but he can propel himself which ever direction he wants to go and isn't afraid at all. He loves racing Reagan and even swimming back and forth between her and Mom and the stairs and Mom! Very exciting! (I'll have to work on some pics of this soon!) I so love summer!

Spencer just finished swim lessons and has learned to hold his breath and even retrieve rings off the bottom of the pool. It's fun to see your kids learn new things.
